Abstract
Abstract : Advances in infectious disease modeling may offer opportunities to mitigate the effect of emerging infectious diseases upon military readiness. Concerned that opportunities for collaboration might be missed and unintended redundancy might be occurring, the U.S. Defense Department (DoD) Global Emerging Infections Surveillance and Response System (GEIS) sponsored conferences in August 2005 and May 2008 for infectious disease modelers engaged in DoD projects or on models useful to the DoD. Several recommendations were made at these conferences, to include the identification of organizations with ...demonstrated expertise in model development and operation for collaboration with the DoD and civilian organizations that are developing simulation models or conducting exercises. Despite these recommendations, infectious disease modeling efforts in support of the DoD have remained somewhat disjointed.
